Deputy Prime Minister

A Deputy Prime Minister is a high-ranking government official who acts as a senior assistant and substitute for the Prime Minister. They help lead the government, oversee specific policies or departments, and step in to assume the Prime Minister’s responsibilities if needed, such as during absences or emergencies. While not always a formal position in every country, when present, the Deputy Prime Minister plays a key role in coordinating government activities and supporting the Prime Minister’s leadership. Their exact duties can vary depending on the country's political system and the Prime Minister's preferences.
